Deadlines Hostile

• Verse

Verse
E5
I never see the threat too soon
E5                            G5
The blood on the bandage, the ghost in the room
 F5                           D5
Got a canvas as white as the moon
       A5                          D5
But when I see it at night, it's a sickening blue

E5
I was thinking people never change
E5                              G5
But there's a new taste of dread that I cannot explain
    F5                           D5
And the thoughts that make up my life
A5                          D5
Get reflected in others from time to time

E5
Now I've got another question
E5                         G5
And if we run out of time, can we make an exception
F5                       D5
For the piece that needs completion?
A5                               D5
And I want to hear more from you, here's what I'd like to do

E5
Oh, temptation
E5           G5
I could be a part of you
F5                   D5 A5 D5
(Can't take a message)
E5
Oh, completion
E5
(Can't take a message)
G5
Come in closer
F5
Let the candle burn right through
D5
(Can't take a message)
                  A5                D5
If you can't get what you're after any other way (Can't take a message)

Chorus
Em
Am I, am I, am I, am I on your mind?
Cmaj7
Is it, is it, is it, is it what you like?
G                                Am G
Covered under your sleeve sometime
Em
Am I, am I, am I, am I on your mind?
Cmaj7
Is it, is it, is it, is it what you like?
G                                 Am    G
Alright, I was really a mistake tonight

Verse 2
G5                                  Bb5
I won't speak, I don't know what to say
                         A5                       
I can see in your prayers, it's the same things we pay for
G5                          Bb5
Got a currency that you accept
                        A5                      
If you want to exchange, we can try to connect
G5                                                        Bb5
Give me the number to your room and leave the door on the latch
                               A5                              
There are tigers in the jungle, there's a knife in the mattress
G5                              Bb5
I don't think we broke the glass but hell if I know
                         A5                        
I never learned to dance, what the hell do I know?
G5                   Bb5
I know I won't always need you like this
A5                   
I swear I'm not always falling to bits
G5                   Bb5
But, but in the hallway the moment hits
A5                   
And the set-up clicks like a safety
 
Yeah, you could hear a pin drop, feel it
G5         Bb5
I feel it, you'll feel it
A5
You'll feel it
G5        Bb5
I feel it, you'll feel it
A5
Feel it, feel it
Feel it, feel it
N.C
Feel it, feel it, two, three, four

Chorus

Em
Am I, am I, am I, am I on your mind?
Cmaj7
Is it, is it, is it, is it what you like?
G                              Am G
I was really in a state tonight
Em
Am I, am I, am I, am I on your mind?
Cmaj7
Is it, is it, is it, is it what you like?
G                                   Am
I'm alright, one day hope I see you sometime
                   G
Old time, sometime, all the time, no time

Em
Oh, temptation
Cmaj7
I could take a piece from you
G Am G

Em
Oh, completion
Cmaj7
Let it burn, let the candle burn right through
G Am G

Em
